Abstract

Techniques for supporting operation of relay stations in wireless communication systems are described. In an aspect, a bitmap may be sent by a base station and/or a relay station to identify subframes of at least two types in multiple radio frames. For example, the bitmap may indicate whether each subframe covered by the bitmap is of a first type or a second type. UEs may use the bitmap to control their operation. For example, a UE may perform channel estimation or measurement for the subframes of the first type and may skip channel estimation and measurement for the subframes of the second type. In another aspect, a base station may transmit data and/or control information on resources not used by a relay station to transmit a reference signal. This may avoid interference to the reference signal from the relay station, which may improve performance for UEs communicating with the relay station.

Fig. 3 illustrates the frame structure 300 for TDD in LTE.LTE supports several down link-uplink configuration of TDD.For all down link-uplink configuration, subframe 0 and 5 is used to down link (DL), and subframe 2 is used to up link (UL).Subframe 3,4,7,8 and 9 can be used to down link or up link separately, and this depends on down link-uplink configuration.Subframe 1 comprises three special field, and these three special field comprise for the down link pilot timeslot (DwPTS) of downlink control channel and transfer of data, there is no the protection period (GP) of transmission and the uplink pilot time slot (UpPTS) for Random Access Channel (RACH) or detection reference signal (SRS).Subframe 6 can comprise only DwPTS or all three special field or downlink subframe, and this depends on down link-uplink configuration.For different sub-frame configuration, DwPTS, GP and UpPTS can have different lasting.
On down link, eNB110 can transmit PSS in the code-element period 2 of subframe 1 and 6, transmits SSS, and transmit PBCH in the code-element period of the end of subframe 0 and 5 in the subframe 0 of some radio frame.ENB110 also can transmit PCFICH, PHICH, PDCCH and PDSCH in each downlink subframe.
Various signals in LTE and channel are entitled as " Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA) the public is retrievable; The evolved universal terrestrial radio electricity access of Physical Channels and Modulation((E-UTRA); Physical channel and modulation) " 3GPP TS36.211 in be described.Frame structure 200 and 300 is also described in 3GPP TS36.211.
LTE supports to transmit unicast info to particular UE.LTE also supports transmit broadcast message and transmit multicast information to UE group to all UE.Multicast/broadcast transmission can be called as MBSFN transmission.Can be called as conventional subframe for the subframe that sends unicast info.Can be called as MBSFN subframe for the subframe that sends multicast and/or broadcast message.
Fig. 4 illustrates two exemplary conventional sub-frame formats 410 and 420 for normal cyclic prefix.Available temporal frequency resource can be divided into Resource Block.Each Resource Block can cover 12 subcarriers in a time slot and can comprise several resource elements.Each resource element can cover a subcarrier in a code-element period, and can be used to send a modulated symbol, and modulated symbol can be real-valued or complex value.
Sub-frame formats 410 can be used by the eNB that is equipped with two antennas.Because the different reference signal in cellular cell can send and can is used for channel conditions or quality to do channel estimating and measurement by UE in code-element period 0,4,7 and 11.Reference signal is the known signal of transmitter and receiver both sides priori, and also can be known as pilot tone.Because the different reference signal in cellular cell is a distinctive reference signal in cellular cell, for example, use based on determined one or more sequence of symhols of cellular cell identity (ID) and generate.For the purpose of simplicity, the reference signal different because of cellular cell can be called reference signal for short.In Fig. 4, for thering is mark R agiven resource element, can be on this resource element send reference symbols sn from antenna a, and can on this resource element, not send modulated symbol from other antennas.Sub-frame formats 420 can be used by the eNB that is equipped with four antennas.Can in code-element period 0,1,4,7,8 and 11, send reference signal.
In the example of Fig. 4, in the conventional subframe with M=3, send three TDM and control code element.PCFICH can send in code-element period 0, and PDCCH and PHICH can send in code-element period 0 to 2.PDSCH can send in all the other code-element periods 3 to 13 of this subframe.
Fig. 5 illustrates two exemplary MBSFN sub-frame formats 510 and 520 for normal cyclic prefix.Sub-frame formats 510 can be used by the eNB that is equipped with two antennas.Can in code-element period 0, send reference signal.For the example shown in Fig. 5, M=1 and send TDM control code element in MBSFN subframe.Sub-frame formats 520 can be used by the eNB that is equipped with four antennas.Can in code-element period 0 and 1, send reference signal.For the example shown in Fig. 5, M=2 and send two TDM control code elements in MBSFN subframe.
Generally speaking, PCFICH can send in the code-element period of MBSFN subframe 0, and PDCCH and PHICH can send in code-element period 0 to M-1.Broadcast/multi broadcast information can send in the code-element period M to 13 of MBSFN subframe.Alternatively, in code-element period M to 13, can not send transmission.ENB can transmit MBSFN subframe by the periodicity of 10ms, for example, in the subframe t of each radio frame, transmit.It is the system information of MBSFN subframe that eNB can broadcast which subframe of instruction.
Generally speaking, MBSFN subframe is the subframe of carrying limited reference signal and limited control information in the control section of this subframe, and can in the data division of this subframe, carry or can not carry multicast/broadcast data.Stand (for example, eNB or relay station) can state that subframe is MBSFN subframe (for example,, via system information) to UE.These UE can expect reference signal and control information in the control section of MBSFN subframe subsequently.The broadcast data in the data division of UE expection MBSFN subframe is informed at this station individually (for example, via top signaling), and UE is subsequently by the broadcast data in anticipatory data part.The broadcast data in the data division of any UE expection MBSFN subframe can be selected not inform in this station, and UE is by the broadcast data in can not anticipatory data part.Can utilize these characteristics of MBSFN subframe to support operation of relays, as described below.
Figure 4 and 5 illustrate some sub-frame formats that can be used for down link.Also can for example use other sub-frame formats for more than two antenna.
Fig. 6 illustrates exemplary pilotaxitic texture 600.For FDD, pilotaxitic texture 600 can be used for each in down link and up link.For TDD, pilotaxitic texture 600 can be used for down link and up link.As shown in Figure 6, the S that definable has index 0 to S-1 interweaves, and wherein S can equal 6,8,10 or other certain values.Each interweaving can comprise the subframe of an interval S frame.Particularly, the s that interweaves can comprise subframe s, s+S, s+2S etc., wherein s ∈ 0 ..., S-1}.Interweave and also can be called as HARQ and interweave.
This system can be supported the HARQ to the transfer of data in down link and up link.For HARQ, transmitter can send one or more transmission of grouping until the received machine of this grouping is correctly decoded or suffers from other certain end conditions.It can be point group selection modulation and coding scheme (MCS) can be correctly decoded after a given number transmission that can be called as target termination.For synchronous HARQ, all transmission of this grouping can send in the single subframe interweaving.For asynchronous HARQ, each transmission of this grouping can be scheduled and send in any subframe.
Fig. 7 A illustrates the transfer of data with HARQ via relay station 120 on down link.ENB110 can have the data that will send to UE130, and can dispatch UE130 and on down link, carry out transfer of data.ENB110 can be at subframe t 1in on back haul link, send down link (DL) grant and data.Down link is granted can indicate institute's assign resources, selected modulation and coding scheme (MCS) etc.Relay station 120 can receive from the down link of eNB110 to be granted and transfer of data, and can grant and carry out deal with data transmission according to down link.Depend on decoded result, relay station 120 can be at subframe t 1in+Q, send acknowledgement (ACK) or negative acknowledgement (NAK), wherein Q is the delay about HARQ response.If receive NAK, eNB110 can be at subframe t 1in+S, retransmit these data, and if receive ACK, can transmit new data, wherein S is the number of subframes in interweaving.The transfer of data of being made by eNB110 for back haul link and the ACK/NAK feedback of being made by relay station 120 can be proceeded in a similar manner.
For access link, relay station 120 can be at subframe t 2middle transmission down link is granted and data, subframe t 2can with subframe t 1be offset suitable amount.For example, subframe t 2can be that wherein relay station 120 is successfully decoded from the subframe that is intended to the data that are sent to UE130 of eNB110.UE130 can receive from the down link of relay station 120 and grant and transfer of data, and grant and carry out deal with data transmission according to down link, and at subframe t 2in+Q, send ACK or NAK.If receive NAK, relay station 120 can be at subframe t 2in+S, retransmit these data, and if receive ACK, can transmit new data.The transfer of data of being made by relay station 120 for access link and the ACK/NAK feedback of being made by UE130 can be proceeded in a similar manner.
Fig. 7 B illustrates the transfer of data with HARQ via relay station 120 in up link.UE130 can have the data that will send in up link and can be at subframe t 3middle transmission resource request.Relay station 120 can receive resource request, and scheduling UE130 carries out transfer of data in up link, and at subframe t 3in+Q, sending up link (UL) grants.UE130 can be at subframe t 3in+S, grant to send transfer of data according to up link.Relay station 120 can be processed from the transfer of data of UE130 and can be depending on decoded result at subframe t 3in+Q+S, send ACK or NAK.If receive NAK, UE130 can be at subframe t 3in+2S, retransmit these data, and if receive ACK, can transmit new data.The transfer of data of being made by UE130 for access link and the ACK/NAK feedback of being made by relay station 120 can be proceeded in a similar manner.
For back haul link, relay station 120 can be at subframe t 4middle transmission resource request.ENB110 can receive resource request, and transfer of data is carried out at dispatching of relays station 120 in up link, and at subframe t 4in+Q, sending up link grants.Relay station 120 can be at subframe t 4in+S, grant to send transfer of data according to up link.ENB110 can process from the transfer of data of relay station 120 and can be at subframe t 4in+Q+S, send ACK or NAK.Relay station 120 can be depending on and receives ACK or NAK and at subframe t 4in+2S, retransmit these data or transmit new data.The transfer of data of being made by relay station 120 for back haul link and the ACK/NAK feedback of being made by eNB110 can be proceeded in a similar manner.
Fig. 7 A and 7B show and wherein can in evenly spaced subframe, send data and can send the synchronous HARQ of ACK information with there is constant offset amount Q place for the subframe that sends data.For the FDD in LTE, S can equal 8, and Q can equal 4.Data can send in a subframe interweaving, and these subframes can 8, interval subframe.For the TDD in LTE, S can equal 10, and Q can be variable and depend on selected down link-uplink configuration.S and Q also can have other values.For asynchronous HARQ, data can send in any subframe, and ACK information can send with there is fixing or variable offset amount place for the subframe that sends data.For under asynchronous HARQ and be also the transmission of different pieces of information under TDD, S and Q can be different.
Can be every several HARQ processes of link definition.HARQ process can on given interweaving, carry grouping all transmission until this grouping be correctly decoded, and the transmission of another grouping of portability subsequently.New grouping can send in the time that HARQ process becomes available in this process.
1. the use of the MBSFN subframe of blank subframe or 8ms
Relay station 120 typically can not transmit simultaneously and receive on identical frequency channels.Therefore, some be assigned to back haul links in available subframe and can be called as backhaul subframe.All the other subframes can be assigned to access link and can be called as access subframe.Relay station 120 can be communicated by letter with eNB110 and can in access subframe, be communicated by letter with UE130 in backhaul subframe.
On the one hand, relay station 120 can become blank subframe by backhaul sub-frame configuration on access link.In one design, blank subframe can not comprise transmission, there is no reference signal, there is no control information and there is no data.Relay station 120 can what not transmit to can monitor eNB110 on backhaul down link in each blank subframe.Relay station 120 can transmit the periodicity of blank subframe with the data of coupling HARQ transmission by the periodicity of S subframe.In one design, S can equal 8 subframes (or being 8ms) for FDD, or can equal 10 subframes (or being 10ms) for TDD.ENB110 also can become blank subframe by access sub-frame configuration.ENB110 can what not transmit to avoid causing interference on down link in each blank subframe.UE130 can be observed the less interference from eNB110 subsequently during the blank subframe of eNB110.
Blank subframe can be used to support operation of relays.Blank subframe also can be used to other objects, such as extending and restricted associated interference management for range.It is that wherein UE is connected to the scene in the detected all eNB of this UE with the eNB of lower path loss that range extends.This may cause wherein UE to be connected to the situation than some other eNB with the eNB of more weak signal.For example, in Fig. 1, UE134 can be connected to has lower path loss and the lower slight eNB114 that receives signal quality, and can be observed the high interference from grand eNB110.Extend for range, grand eNB110 can retain one group of subframe, and this group subframe can be by slight eNB114 for sending data to UE134.Grand eNB110 can become blank subframe by retained sub-frame configuration.ENB114 also can state that the subframe being used by grand eNB110 is blank subframe slightly, thereby UE134 will can not measure the high interference from grand eNB110.
Restricted association be wherein UE may be near femto eNB but may cannot access (for example,, because this femto eNB belongs to another user) scene of this femto eBN.UE can be connected to subsequently has lower another eNB that receives power.For example, in Fig. 1, UE136 may and possibly cannot access femto eNB116 near femto eNB116.UE136 can be connected to subsequently grand eNB110 and can be observed the high interference from femto eNB116.Femto eNB116 can transmit some blank subframe to avoid causing the interference to UE136.UE136 can communicate by letter with grand eNB110 subsequently in these blank subframe.
Blank subframe also can be used to transmit new control channel to support technology such as network multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO), high-order mimo.Network MIMO refers to the transmission from multiple cellular cells to one or more UE.For network MIMO, can be blank subframe and will can be by these old-fashioned UE for channel estimating, Interference Estimation, measurement or other objects to old-fashioned UE advertisement by some subframes.Transmission for network MIMO can send and will can not affect old-fashioned UE in these subframes.
For FDD, LTE supports to have the periodic MBSFN subframe of 10ms at present.LTE also supports to have the periodic synchronous HARQ of 8ms at present.MBSFN subframe can not aimed at the subframe for transfer of data.For example, can be to the statement such as subframe 0,10,20 MBSFN subframe, and can in subframe 0,8,16 etc., send data by HARQ.
On the other hand, for FDD, can support the periodic MBSFN subframe with 8ms to mate the periodicity of the data that send with HARQ.LTE standard can be modified as supporting the MBSFN subframe of 8ms and/or other the suitable S values periodicity with matched data.
Relay station 120 can use some to interweave and use all the other to interweave to access link back haul link.The subframe interweaving for back haul link can be declared as MBSFN subframe.In some cases, relay station 120 may depart from normal division.For example, relay station 120 can be used as for example, in some subframe of the part interweaving of distributing to back haul link (, the subframe 0 and 5 in FDD) transmission PSS, SSS and PBCH.Relay station 120 can use conventional subframe but not MBSFN subframe to these subframes.In one design, relay station 120 can only transmit PSS and SSS for the conventional subframe of subframe 0 and 5.In another kind design, relay station 120 can transmit TDM control code element and PSS and SSS for the conventional subframe of subframe 0 and 5.
On the other hand, position mapping can be used to pass on the dissimilar subframe being used by relay station 120 or eNB110.Generally speaking, position mapping can cover any lasting, for example any number radio frame.Position mapping can be indicated the type of each subframe that this mapping covers.
Fig. 8 illustrates the design to the position mapping 800 of i+R-1 for R subframe i, and wherein R can equal 2,4 etc.Position mapping can comprise of each subframe to should position mapping covering.The position of corresponding each subframe for example can be set as the first value (for example, ' 0 '), to indicate conventional subframe or to be set as the second value (, ' 1 ') to indicate MBSFN subframe.If use blank subframe but not MBSFN subframe, the second value also can be indicated blank subframe.Position mapping can allow each subframe to be set as one of supported subframe type neatly.In one design, position is shone upon 40 that can cover 4 radio frames and can comprise corresponding 40 subframes.Position mapping can for example, send via broadcast channel (, PBCH) or other certain channels.
In another kind design, subframe can interweave and distribute for unit.Have and be appointed as can passing on via broadcast channel interweaving of subframe of MBSFN subframe (or being appointed as blank subframe).Being appointed as the subframe of MBSFN subframe (or being appointed as blank subframe) also can pass on by other modes.
Blank subframe and/or MBSFN subframe can for example, be communicated to UE via signaling (, position mapping).UE can learn blank subframe and/or MBSFN subframe.UE can not expect reference signal in blank subframe, and in MBSFN subframe, can expect limited reference signal.UE can not use blank subframe to carry out (in frequency and between frequency) measurement, channel estimating and Interference Estimation.UE can carry out measurement, channel estimating and Interference Estimation based on conventional subframe.UE can use or can not use that MBSFN subframe is measured, channel estimating and Interference Estimation.UE can and may also have the reference signal in MBSFN subframe to carry out channel estimating based on conventional subframe.
UE can and may also have the just suitable part of MBSFN subframe to carry out Interference Estimation based on conventional subframe.Interference can (i) change across MBSFN subframe because the TDM in MBSFN subframe controls the TDM structure of code element, and (ii) changes between MBSFN subframe and other subframes due to the TDM structure of MBSFN subframe.UE can carry out Interference Estimation by taking into account this interference variations.For example, have the interference higher than other OFDM code elements if UE knows OFDM code element 0, UE can be respectively OFDM code element 0 and the interference of other OFDM symbol estimation.UE can carry out Interference Estimation based on reference signal.UE can only obtain the Interference Estimation about OFDM code element 0 by the reference signal in OFDM code element 0.UE can use the reference signal sending in other OFDM code elements to obtain the Interference Estimation about these OFDM code elements.
2. mBSFN subframe and time migration
ENB110 can transmit TDM and control code element in a M of an each subframe code-element period.Relay station 120 also can transmit TDM and control code element in a M of an each subframe code-element period.Relay station 120 may receive TDM from eNB110 simultaneously and controls code element and transmit its TDM to its UE and control code element.
On the other hand, the timing of relay station 120 can with a timing slip N code-element period of eNB110, wherein N can be any suitable value.This timing offset can be selected such that the TDM of relay station 120 controls code element and/or reference signal is not controlled code element and/or reference signal crossover with the TDM of eNB110.
Fig. 9 illustrates the design of the code element timing shift between eNB110 and relay station 120.Generally speaking, the timing of relay station 120 can or postpone N code-element period with respect to the timing advance of eNB110 (as shown in Figure 9).This time migration can make relay station 120 can receive from the TDM of eNB110 and control code element.
ENB110 can transmit reference signal (RS) and data to relay station 120 in the subframe t of eNB110.Relay station 120 can show as UE and can not transmit reference signal, control information and/or data to its UE in the subframe q of relay station 120.Relay station 120 can be configured to its subframe q MBSFN subframe and can in subframe q, transmit one or more TDM and control code element.This can reduce wherein relay station 120 need to transmit the number of symbols of reference and can allow relay station 120 to monitor the more multiple-symbol being transmitted in subframe t by eNB110 to its UE.MBSFN subframe can allow to select more efficient time migration between relay station 120 and eNB110.
As shown in Figure 9, relay station 120 can only receive a 14-N the OFDM code element from eNB110 in subframe t, controls code element, reference signal and/or data because relay station 120 may transmit its TDM during last N the OFDM code element (it is corresponding to the subframe q+1 of relay station 120) of subframe t.Relay station 120 can transmit single TDM by the MBSFN sub-frame formats 510 in Fig. 5 and control code element, and N can equal 1.In one design, on down link, eNB110 can send data and reference signal to relay station 120 in a 14-N of a subframe t OFDM code element.Interleaving scheme can be across this 14-N OFDM code element (but not all 14 OFDM code elements) interleaved transmission the data to relay station 120.Similarly, in up link, relay station 120 can send data to eNB110 in 14-N OFDM code element (but not all 14 OFDM code elements).Interleaving scheme can be expanded the data that sent by relay station 120 in 14-N OFDM code element.For down link and up link, in 14-N the OFDM code element of timing offset with N code-element period, interweave and can improve data performance.
In one design, coherent subframe can be used to communicating by letter between eNB110 and relay station 120.This only may cause in a subframe but not in each subframe, lose N OFDM code element.For example, if relay station 120 is labeled as blank subframe by K coherent subframe and has the timing advance of N code element, subframe and relay station 120 that eNB110 has the individual relay station 120 therebetween of K-1 not transmit any reference signal, control information or data can be monitored eNB110 subsequently in all code-element periods.In the subframe after this K-1 subframe, relay station 120 can transmit and therefore can monitor only 14-N code element in last N OFDM code element.If relay station 120 is that MBSFN subframe but not blank subframe and the only TDM in each MBSFN subframe control code element and upload and send, N OFDM code element in its possible loss end subframe and an OFDM code element in other K-1 subframe by K sub-frame flag.
If support to have the periodic MBSFN subframe of 8ms, eNB110 can transmit to relay station 120 according to the HARQ timeline of 8ms.Relay station 120 can be for the subframe statement MBSFN subframe that wherein eNB110 transmits to relay station 120.If support to have the periodic MBSFN subframe of 10ms, eNB110 can transmit to relay station 120 according to the HARQ timeline of 10ms.ENB110 can guarantee not conflict for the resource of the UE of 8ms and the relay station of 10ms (for example,, for down link and up link control, data etc.) subsequently.For up link control resource, eNB110 can use different side-play amounts to the demodulated reference signal from relay station and UE (DMRS).Alternatively, relay station and UE can be by frequency division multiplexing (FDM).
MBSFN subframe or blank subframe and time migration can be used to support operation of relays, as described above.MBSFN subframe or blank subframe and time migration also can be used to interference management, for example, extend and restricted association for range.
3. mBSFN subframe and new control channel
On the other hand, eNB110 can not transmit new control channel, reference signal and data at the time durations transmitting to relay station 120 at relay station 120.This can allow relay station 120 to receive these control channels subsequently.Relay station 120 can become this type of sub-frame configuration MBSFN subframe, thereby it can only transmit TDM control code element and can monitor eNB110 by all the other code elements.
Figure 10 illustrates the design of the downlink transmission with new control channel of being undertaken by eNB110.ENB110 can transmit and transmit to its UE in subframe t+1 to relay station 120 in subframe t.Relay station 120 can be at subframe t(its can receive from eNB110 in q) corresponding to the subframe of relay station 120 and can subframe t+1(its can be corresponding to the subframe q+1 of relay station 120) transmit to its UE.The timing of relay station 120 can be aimed at the timing of eNB110.
In the design shown in Figure 10, eNB110 can transmit or not transmit TDM and control code element in a M of a subframe t code-element period.ENB110 can transmit new control channel and data to relay station 120 in all the other code-element periods of subframe t.Can be PCFICH supposition default value (for example, M=3), or PCFICH can be used as one of control channel and sends.ENB110 for example also can use, for the form of conventional subframe (, as shown in Figure 4) or new form and transmit reference signal (RS).ENB110 also can serve other UE and/or other relay stations in subframe t.The MBSFN sub-frame formats that can for example use relay station 120 transmits its TDM and controls code element in a M of a subframe t code-element period.Relay station 120 can switch to subsequently from eNB110 and receive transmission in all the other code-element periods of subframe t.
In the subframe that eNB110 can be forced to transmit at relay station 120, transmit to relay station 120.For example, eNB110 can at the subframe of relay station 120 0 and 5(, it may transmit PSS and SSS) in transmit.ENB110 subsequently therein relay station 120 not in the OFDM code element transmitting to relay station 120 transfer control channel and data.ENB110 may know the forced transport of relay station 120 and therefore can avoid transmitting to relay station 120 during these forced transport.
MBSFN subframe and new control channel also can be used to interference management (for example, extending and restricted association for range) and for supporting the technology such as network MIMO.For example, mastery interference source can become some sub-frame configuration MBSFN subframe.In these subframes, weak eNB can communicate by letter with its UE in the code-element period not used by this mastery interference source.
4. for disposing the mechanism of subframe 0 and 5
Relay station 120 can have the various restrictions that can affect its operation.For example, relay station 120 can be communicated by letter with eNB110 with up link via backhaul down link and can communicate by letter with UE130 with up link via access downlink, as shown in fig. 1.Because relay station 120 typically can not transmit and receive on identical frequency channels simultaneously, therefore back haul link and access link can be by time division multiplexinges.Relay station 120 only can be communicated by letter subsequently in each subframe on back haul link or access link.
LTE supports asynchronous HARQ and in up link, supports synchronous HARQ on down link.For HARQ, the transmission of data can be sent out and may be received in subframe t and make mistakes.Can in any subframe, be sent out for asynchronous HARQ the re-transmission of these data or can for example, in specific sub-frame (, subframe t+8), be sent out for synchronous HARQ.Which subframe is synchronous HARQ therefore can limit can be used to retransmit.
Relay station 120 can state that backhaul subframe is MBSFN subframe or is blank subframe.This can allow relay station 120 to transmit minimum control information and reference signal, as shown in Figure 5.But MBSFN subframe can be constrained to the periodicity (if do not support the MBSFN subframe of 8ms, in LTE distribution version 8) of 10ms.Relay station 120 can be required to transmit PSS and SSS in subframe 0 and 5.The available some modes of the various restrictions of relay station 120 are solved.
Figure 11 illustrates the design of the communication that has 10ms timeline of being undertaken by relay station 120.In this design, relay station 120 can have some backhaul subframes and each radio frame some access subframes for communicating by letter with UE130 for communicating by letter with eNB110 in each radio frame.Subframe 0 and 5 can be to allow relay station 120 in these subframes, to transmit the access subframe of PSS and SSS.Relay station 120 can transmit and/or receive from eNB110 to eNB110 in each backhaul subframe.Relay station 120 can transmit and/or receive from UE130 to UE130 in each access subframe.Relay station 120 can state that backhaul subframe is MBSFN subframe (as shown in Figure 11), and it can have the periodicity of 10ms, or can state that backhaul subframe is for being blank subframe.
In the example shown in Figure 11, the subframe 4,8 and 9 in subframe 0,4 and 5 and up link in the down link of each radio frame can be access subframe.Subframe 0,1,2,3,5,6 and 7 in subframe 1,2,3,6,7,8 and 9 and up link in the down link of each radio frame can be backhaul subframe.For access downlink, relay station 120 can transmit data and can in subframe 4,8 and 9, receive ACK information (for example, ACK or NAK) from UE130 to UE130 respectively in subframe 0,4 and 5.Because asynchronous HARQ is used to down link, therefore relay station 120 can send re-transmission in subframe 0,4 and 5.Access downlink can operate with 10ms timeline.For example, relay station 120 can send transmission in the subframe of given radio frame 0, in subframe 4, receives NAK, and in the subframe 0 of next radio frame, sends and retransmit subsequently.
For access up link, UE130 can send data and can in subframe 8,2 and 3, receive ACK information from relay station 120 to relay station 120 respectively in subframe 4,8 and 9.Relay station 120 can aim at the first transmission old-fashioned UE and can operate new-type UE 10ms timeline.In one design, if the first unsuccessful transmission, UE130 can be configured to transmit in other subframes.Because synchronous HARQ is used to up link, therefore UE130 can send re-transmission in specific sub-frame.For example, UE130 can send the transmission of grouping in the subframe of given radio frame 4, and can in subframe 8, receive ACK information.Because subframe 8 is MBSFN subframes, even if therefore this subframe is preserved for backhaul down link, relay station 120 also can send ACK information in this subframe on access downlink.UE130 can receive NAK and retransmit this data in follow-up subframe 2 in subframe 8.But this uplink sub-frames can be preserved for backhaul uplink.In this case, relay station 120 can (i) monitor UE130 and cancel its ul transmissions or (ii) continue transmit in backhaul uplink and ignore UE re-transmission until this re-transmission with consistent for the subframe that accesses up link.
In another kind design, can use " ACK and hang-up " process.For example, relay station 120 can stop dispatching UE130 in up link by the target of a transmission.UE130 can send the transmission of grouping.For example, if relay station 120 can not send the ACK information (, because relay station 120 may just be monitored on back haul link) to this transmission, UE130 can be used as this measure implicit expression ACK and can hang up its transmission.But UE130 does not abandon this grouping.If relay station 120 these groupings of decoding make mistakes, relay station 120 is follow-up dispatches the second transmission to this grouping in a subframe (relay station 120 can transmit the appointment to this subframe), and the hang-up being covered by this implicit expression ACK can be called subsequently.Similarly scene can occur in the time that eNB110 dispatches relay station 120 in up link.Relay station 120 can send this grouping but possibly cannot receive the ACK information from eNB110, because it may just transmit to UE130 on access link.Relay station 120 can be used as this measure implicit expression ACK but can not abandon this grouping.If enB110 this grouping of decoding makes mistakes, and it can be dispatched relay station 120 and in up link, retransmit this grouping.
Figure 12 has explained orally selection target being stopped based on transmission opportunity.Figure 12 shows between access link and back haul link the division different with the division shown in Figure 11.In the example shown in Figure 12, the subframe 0,1,3,4 and 8 in subframe 0,2,4,5,6 and 8 and up link in down link is used to access link, and all the other subframes are used to back haul link.Relay station 120 can be labeled as backhaul subframe blank subframe and can in these subframes, not transmit any control information or data to its UE.In one design, UE130 can use based on relay station 120 can with the determined target of ACK transmission opportunity stop sending grouping.ACK transmission opportunity can be corresponding to wherein sending ACK information (for example,, because synchronous HARQ requires) and operational subframe.In the example shown in Figure 12, UE130 can start the transmission to grouping in the subframe of radio frame i 0, and can in subframe 8, have transfer of data chance but there is no transfer of data chance in the subframe 6 of next radio frame i+1.Relay station 120 can have ACK transmission opportunity in the subframe of the subframe of radio frame i 4 and next radio frame 2.The target that relay station 120 can be two transmission of this point of group selection of UE130 subsequently stops.UE130 also can start the transmission to grouping in the subframe of radio frame i 1, and can stop due to the target that does not have transfer of data chance to have a transmission in subframe 9, as shown in Figure 12.
Relay station 120 can send ACK information after each transfer of data of UE130, for example, and as shown in two examples in Figure 12.In another kind design, relay station 120 possibly cannot send ACK information after each transfer of data, and can send ACK information in next ACK transmission opportunity.For example, UE130 can send the first transmission to grouping in the subframe of radio frame i 3, in subframe 7, do not receive ACK information, in the subframe 1 of next radio frame i+1, send the second transmission to this grouping, and in the subframe 5 of next radio frame, receive the ACK information to this grouping, as shown in the 3rd example in Figure 12.The target that relay station 120 can be two transmission of this point of group selection stops making the effective use to uplink resource.
Generally speaking, stop can be based on not being used for sending the first subframe of this grouping or determining based on when sending and/or receive ACK information for the target of grouping.In one design, ACK information can send after each transmission of this grouping.In this design, the first subframe that target stops being not useable for this grouping based on ACK transmission opportunity is wherein selected.In another kind design, ACK information can be delayed.In this design, if ACK transmission opportunity can be used for grouping after K transmission, the termination of the target of this grouping can be K transmission, and wherein K is more than or equal to any integer value of 1.In the exemplary division shown in Figure 12, relay station 120 can (i) stop and (ii) the target termination that divides two transmission of group selection for starting to send in subframe 0 or 3 for start the target of dividing a transmission of group selection of transmission in subframe 1,4 or 8.
In another design, UE130 can send grouping to relay station 120 by the mode that the termination of each grouping is aimed to the first transmission.In this case, relay station 120 will not need to monitor that other subframes are to find re-transmission.For the not grouping at the first transmission ending, UE130 can send re-transmission according to synchronous HARQ.Relay station 120 can receive the re-transmission being sent by UE130 but not monitor eNB110 in backhaul subframe.Alternatively, relay station 120 can be ignored the re-transmission being sent in backhaul subframe by UE130 and can wait for the later retransmission sending in access subframe, and this may cause higher latency.Generally speaking, relay station 120 can be whenever possible time just receives from the re-transmission of UE130 and can ignore the re-transmission that whatever the reason is can not receive.
For the example shown in Figure 12, relay station 120 can be in a similar manner subframe 1,3,7 with in 9 via backhaul down link and subframe 2,5,6,7 with in 9, communicate by letter with eNB110 via backhaul uplink.For backhaul down link, eNB110 can transmit data and can in subframe 5 and 7, receive ACK information to relay station 120 respectively in subframe 1 and 3.ENB110 also can send transmission under asynchronous HARQ in any suitable subframe.For backhaul uplink, relay station 120 can send data and can in subframe 9,1 and 3, receive ACK information to eNB110 respectively in subframe 5,7 and 9.The ACK transmission opportunity that the transfer of data chance that relay station 120 can be used based on relay station 120 and eNB110 can use sends grouping to eNB110.Some subframes may not have ACK transmission opportunity.Technology described above, such as ACK and hang-up code and termination target selection, can be used to not have the subframe of corresponding ACK transmission opportunity.Alternatively, relay station 120 can send grouping to eNB110 by the mode that the termination of each grouping is aimed to the first transmission.For the not grouping at the first transmission ending, relay station 120 can send re-transmission according to synchronous HARQ.In one design, relay station 120 can send and retransmits and can in access subframe, skip re-transmission in backhaul subframe.ENB110 can receive the re-transmission being sent by relay station 120 subsequently in backhaul subframe.In another kind design, relay station 120 can send and retransmit in backhaul and access subframe.In this design, relay station 120 can be skipped the monitoring to UE130 in access subframe.In another design, relay station 120 can use asynchronous HARQ and can may not be to send on for other backhaul subframes of the part interweaving of the first transmission to retransmit in up link.
For back haul link and access link, ACK information can for example, be sent out after the fixed number subframe (, 4 subframes) after corresponding transfer of data.This can limit and be used in the number that sends the subframe of data on backhaul and access link.In one design, eNB110 can (for example,, in the meeting of next ACK conveyer) send ACK information to relay station 120 in revocable subframe.For example, relay station 120 can be in subframe 1 to eNB110 send transfer of data and can be at subframe 6(but not subframe 5) in the ACK information of reception to this transmission.Similarly, relay station 120 can (for example,, in the meeting of next ACK conveyer) send ACK information to eNB110 in revocable subframe.For example, eNB110 can be in subframe 1 to relay station 120 send transfer of data and can be at subframe 6(but not subframe 5) in receive the ACK information to this transmission.Therefore, for can be different from UE in the case of dispatching old-fashioned/distribution version 8 to/from the subframe of relay station 120 sending/receiving ACK information but not relay station 120 by the subframe using.For backhaul down link and up link, relay station 120(or eNB110) can send signaling to pass on different subframes for sending ACK information.ENB110(or relay station 120) can in indicated subframe, receive subsequently ACK information.
Relay station 120 can be chosen in backhaul subframe and receive data and/or ACK information from UE130, and may in these subframes, send data and/or ACK information to eNB110.Relay station 120 can (for example, via control channel) be indicated this measure to eNB110, thereby eNB110 can wait for data and/or ACK information from relay station 120.ENB110 also can infer this measure by other means.For example, eNB110 can be respectively in response in subframe 0 and 5 from the transfer of data of relay station 120 to UE130 and know relay station 120 may monitor the ACK information from UE130 subframe 4 and 9.Relay station 120 can send data and/or ACK information subsequently in other subframes.To not use the resource retaining for relay station 120 in backhaul subframe if eNB110 knows relay station 120, eNB110 can dispatch other UE to utilize more completely available resource in these resources.
In another kind design, the transmission on back haul link and access link and re-transmission can send with 8ms timeline.One or more interweaves and can be used to access link, and subframe in should (all) interweaving can be access subframe.All the other interweave and can be used to back haul link, and these subframes in interweaving can be backhaul subframes.Relay station 120 can become MBSFN subframe or blank subframe by backhaul sub-frame configuration to can monitor efficiently eNB110.But in some subframes that interweave in backhaul, relay station 120 can be forced to transmit signal.For example, in subframe 0 and 5, relay station 120 can be required to transmit PSS, SSS etc.Relay station 120 can send transmission to UE130 in these backhaul subframes, converts these subframes to access subframe by this.
At any given time, it is movable on given interweaving, typically only having a HARQ process.In one design, multiple HARQ processes can interweave to provide the more multiprocessing time on identical interweaving.This HARQ process interweaves and can be applied to access link and back haul link.For example, eNB110 can transmit grouping 1 to relay station 120 in subframe 6 in the first downlink HARQ process.Relay station 120 can be forced in the subframe 0 of next radio frame and transmits and possibly cannot send ACK information to eNB110 to its UE.In the subframe 4 of this next radio frame, eNB110 can transmit new grouping (grouping 2) and retransmission packet 1 in the first downlink HARQ process not in the second downlink HARQ process.This interweaves and can between the grouping of the first and second downlink HARQ processes, replace subsequently.This can give 120 more times of relay station to eNB110 transmission ACK information.Only ability retransmission packet in the situation that receiving NACK of eNB110, improves operation of relays thus.
Relay station 120 can carry be initially the uplink sub-frames of the corresponding ACK information of downlink transmission in the subframe that back haul link retains in be its UE scheduling uplink data, as the same even if this uplink sub-frames is the part interweaving that retains for back haul link.In this case, relay station 120 can monitor transmission (and ul ack) to down link data in uplink sub-frames.In the time that backhaul subframe is marked as blank subframe, relay station 120 just sends the ACK information to grouping when can be only consistent with access downlink subframe in the position of ACK.If backhaul subframe is configured to MBSFN subframe, relay station 120 can send the ACK information to ul transmissions.
Even for 8m stimeline, relay station 120 also can transmit PSS and SSS in the subframe of each radio frame 0 and 5.If given subframe 0 or 5 is positioned at backhaul and interweaves above, relay station 120 can be skipped and the communicating by letter and can transmit to its UE in backhaul subframe of eNB110, convert this subframe to access subframe by this.In this case, relay station 120 possibly cannot receive from eNB110 during this subframe.If eNB110 has the ACK information that will send to relay station 120 in this subframe, eNB110 can be by the transmission delay to this ACK information until next backhaul subframe.Similarly, if relay station 120 has the ACK information that will send to eNB110 for the uplink sub-frames of access link, relay station 120 can be by the transmission delay to this ACK information until next backhaul subframe.In another kind design, relay station 120 can be skipped forced transport, such as PSS and SSS in the subframe 0 and 5 as backhaul subframe, and can change into eNB110 and communicating by letter.
In one design, ACK iteration scheme can be used to guarantee transmit ACK information in subframe that UE130 monitors at relay station 120.UE130 can have the ACK information that will send in backhaul subframe.Have the possibility that relay station 120 may monitor access link but not communicate by letter with eNB110 on back haul link, UE130 can send ACK information in this subframe.Alternatively or addedly, in next access subframe that UE130 can will monitor at relay station 120, send ACK information.UE130 can send the ACK information to multiple groupings in given subframe, the ACK information that for example will send in current subframe and the ACK information that will send, repeat in current subframe in previous subframe.
5. subframe skew/periodically control channel
On the other hand, the timing of relay station 120 can with a timing slip integer subframe of eNB110.Subframe skew can allow relay station 120 transmit PSS, SSS and PBCH and also receive PSS, SSS and PBCH from eNB110 to its UE.
Figure 13 illustrates the design of the subframe timing skew between eNB110 and relay station 120.The timing of relay station 120 can or shift to an earlier date an integer subframe (for example a, subframe) with respect to the constant time lag of eNB110 (as shown in Figure 13).ENB110 can transmit PSS, SSS and may also have PBCH in its subframe 0 and 5, and this subframe 0 and 5 can correspond respectively to the subframe 9 and 4 of relay station 120.Relay station 120 can receive PSS, SSS and may also have PBCH from eNB110.Relay station 120 can transmit PSS, SSS and PBCH in its subframe 0 and 5, and this subframe 0 and 5 can correspond respectively to the subframe 1 and 6 of eNB110.
As shown in Figure 13, the skew of the subframe between eNB110 and relay station 120 can cause eNB subframe 0 to be equal to relay sub-frame k, wherein k ≠ 0.Subframe skew can allow relay station 120 to monitor PSS, SSS and the PBCH from eNB110.Subframe skew also can allow eNB110 at relay station 120 by dispatching patcher block of information (SIB) in monitoring the subframe of eNB110.In some cases, subframe skew possibility deficiency is so that relay station 120 for example receives PSS, SSS, PBCH and/or SIB(, for the wherein infeasible TDD operation of subframe skew possibility).In these cases, PSS, SSS, PBCH and/or SIB can send to allow relay station 120 to receive them in independent channel.Alternatively, relay station 120 can periodically be left (for example, not transmitting data to UE130) under order and receive this type of transmission from eNB110.
Relay station 120 can and/or can transmit periodically control channel to eNB110 from UE130 receiving cycle control channel.Periodically control channel portability CQI (CQI) information, detection reference signal (SRS) etc.LTE supports 2,5,10,20 and the periodicity of 40ms for periodicity control channel at present.
On access link, relay station 120 can monitor subframe by the periodicity of 8ms.Periodically control channel can send to guarantee that the every 8ms of relay station 120 just can receive these control channels by the periodicity of 2ms.Alternatively, UE130 can be with 5,10ms or other certain periodicity of lasting sends periodically control channel.Relay station 120 can monitor from the periodicity control channel of UE130 or wait until periodically control channel with to access subframe consistent.
In another kind design, can support 8m for periodicity control channel speriodicity or periodic other certain integer multiples of data that send with HARQ.Each transmission of this periodicity control channel that can allow relay station 120 to receive to be sent by UE130, this UE transmission that can avoid waste.This also can allow eNB110 to receive each transmission of the periodicity control channel being sent by relay station 120.
6. asymmetric backhaul/access is divided
On the other hand, can adopt the asymmetric downlink/uplink of back haul link and access link to divide to realize the effective use to resource.The pattern that this division can repeat based on every S subframe, wherein S can equal 8,10 etc.For down link, S subframe can be divided into and make U dLindividual subframe is used to backhaul down link and V dLindividual subframe is used to access downlink, wherein S=U dL+ V dL.For up link, S subframe can be divided into and make U uLindividual subframe is used to backhaul uplink and V uLindividual subframe is used to access up link, wherein S=U uL+ V uL.Divide U for asymmetric downlink/uplink dL≠ U uLand V dL≠ V uL.
Figure 14 illustrates the example that asymmetric downlink/uplink is divided.In this example, S equals 8, uses backhaul/access of 5:3 to divide, and use backhaul/access of 4:4 to divide to up link to down link.For the purpose of simplicity, backhaul/access downlink that Figure 14 shows for 5:3 is divided, relay station 120 (i) receives from eNB110 in subframe 0 to 4 on backhaul down link, and (ii) in subframe 5 to 7, on access downlink, transmits to UE130.Figure 14 also shows for backhaul/access up link of 4:4 and divides, relay station 120 (i) transmits to eNB110 in subframe 0 to 3 in backhaul uplink, and (ii) in subframe 5 to 7, in access uplink frame, receives from UE130.As shown in Figure 14, relay station 120 can transmit and receive in each subframe except subframe 4 on different frequency channels, and can on two frequency channels, receive in subframe 4.Therefore relay station 120 can meet the requirement that does not transmit simultaneously and receive on identical frequency channels.Generally speaking, can be across 8 subframe distribution for the subframe of backhaul and access downlink, and also can be across 8 subframe distribution for the subframe of backhaul and access up link, thereby obey above-mentioned transmission/reception requirement.
Backhaul/access to down link and up link is divided and can be determined in various manners.In one design, the backhaul/access to every link is divided and can be determined based on channel conditions.For example, more subframe can be used to have the link of poor channel situation to meet the data demand to this link.Alternatively, more subframe can be used to have the link of better channel conditions to improve throughput.In another kind design, the data demand can be depending on this link is divided in the backhaul/access to every link, and the latter can and then be depended on the number of serviced UE and the data demand of each UE.For example, eNB110 can serve many UE and relay station 120 can be served one or several UE.In this case, more subframe can be used to backhaul down link and up link, and less subframe can be used to access downlink and up link.Generally speaking, can support any backhaul/access to divide for down link and up link.In addition, MBSFN subframe can be used to support any backhaul/access to every link to divide.MBSFN subframe can reduce the transmission quantity that relay station 120 makes and can make can monitor more efficiently eNB110 in backhaul downlink subframe.For the MBSFN subframe that back haul link retains also can be supported the communicating control information to relaying UE.Therefore,, for access link, on scheduling ul transmissions and transmission, the impact of the ACK information on ul transmissions may be very little.MBSFN subframe can allow the efficient operation of relay station 120, even as the same under the asymmetric division of up link and downlink subframe.
In the one design shown in Figure 14, asymmetric backhaul/access is divided can be by interweaving to reach for the different numbers of different link assignment.In another kind design, asymmetric backhaul/access is divided can be by reaching the sub-sampling interweaving.For example, the given subframe that interweaves middle even numbering can be used to back haul link, and this subframe of very numbering in interweaving can be used to access link.Relay station 120 can know this only have in interweaving subframe alternately to can be used for access link and the subframe that can replace at these in receive transmission from UE130.Relay station 120 can be correspondingly for UE130 selects modulation and coding scheme.For example, relay station 120 can aim at after the first transmission from UE130 stopping.
Due to asymmetric division, in order to dispatch UE130 and/or the transmission ACK information corresponding with ul transmissions on access link, relay station 120 can for back haul link retain subframe in communicating control information.If relay station 120 is back haul link use MBSFN subframe, relay station 120 can send for the ACK information of the transfer of data receiving from UE130 and other control informations such as up link is granted in any subframe.In this case, relay station 120 can be in first or two the OFDM code elements of backhaul downlink subframe that are labeled as MBSFN subframe by relay station 120 communicating control information and reference signal, and can monitor eNB110 with all the other code-element periods in this subframe.Also can be used to send ACK information, permission and/or other information to/from UE that can these control channels of reception/transmission for the new control channel of up link and/or down link.
In back haul link, for up link and/or down link, new control channel can be used to send ACK information, permission etc.New control channel can (for example,, for the transfer of data sending in subframe t, can send ACK information) or send in different subframes in given sub-frame in subframe t+4.Backhaul/access downlink for the 5:3 shown in Figure 14 is divided, and can in one of these 4 backhaul uplink subframes, send the ACK information of extra backhaul downlink subframe 4.

Can select specific down link-uplink configuration to use.Down link and uplink sub-frames available in selected down link-uplink configuration can be assigned to back haul link and access link, and back haul link and access link can be by time division multiplexinges.In one design, can be for backhaul subframe statement blank subframe, thereby the UE being served by relay station 120 can be in these subframes inertia.In another kind design, MBSFN subframe can be used to backhaul subframe.
Relay station 120 can transmit PSS, SSS and may also have PBCH in subframe 0,1,5 and 6.Relay station 120 can be avoided on access downlink, transmitting to avoid right during backhaul uplink subframe enB110 causes high interference.If relay station 120 can transmit in backhaul uplink subframe on access downlink---it will can not cause high interference to eNB110, if the downlink antenna bundle pattern of for example relay station 120 can provide sufficient RF to isolate to avoid upsetting eNB110.Relay station 120 also can only be dispatched its UE in the subframe that is used for up link by eNB110 and carry out ul transmissions, thereby the UE that its UE can avoid subtend eNB110 to transmit causes interference.
Table 2 shows and meets constraint described above and can be selected to some backhauls-access configuration using.In table 2, backhaul-access configuration X or XY are based on down link-uplink configuration X.Y represents one of multiple alternative (if available) configuring X.For every kind of backhaul shown in table 2-access configuration, distribute to back haul link subframe band shade illustrate, and the subframe of distributing to access link is not with shade and is illustrated.

Figure 23 illustrates the block diagram of the design of base station/eNB110, relay station 120 and UE130.Base station 110 can send transmission to one or more UE on down link, and can in up link, receive transmission from one or more UE.For the purpose of simplicity, below the processing of the transmission to sending to UE130 and receive from UE130 is only described.
At 110 places, base station, transmitting (TX) data processor 2310 can receive the packet that will send to UE130 and other UE, and can process according to selected MCS (for example, coding and modulation) each grouping to obtain data symbols.For HARQ, processor 2310 can generate multiple transmission of each grouping and a transmission can be once provided.Processor 2310 also can be controlled code element to obtain by processing control information, the reference symbols sn of generating reference signal, and multiplex data code element, control code element and reference symbols sn.Processor 2310 for example can further be processed, through multiplexing code element (, for OFDM etc.) to generate output sampling.Transmitter (TMTR) 2312 can be nursed one's health (for example, being transformed into simulation, amplification, filtering and up-conversion) these output samplings with generating downlink signal, and this signal can be transmitted to relay station 120 and UE.
At relay station 120 places, can be received and be provided for receiver (RCVR) 2336 from the down link signal of base station 110.Receiver 2336 can be nursed one's health (for example, filtering, amplification, down-conversion and digitlization), and this receives signal and input sample is provided.Receiving (RX) data processor 2338 can process input sample (for example, for OFDM etc.) and receive code element to obtain.Processor 2338 can further be processed (for example, demodulation code) and receive that code element is to recover to send to control information and the data of UE130.TX data processor 2330 can be identical with base station 110 mode processing (for example, coding and modulation) come the data that recover of self processor 2338 and control information to obtain data symbols and to control code element.Processor 2330 also can generating reference code element, by data with to control code element multiplexing with reference symbols sn, and processes through multiplexing code element and samples to obtain output.Transmitter 2332 can be nursed one's health these outputs and samples and generate downlink relay signal, and this signal can be transmitted to UE130.
